Although there is currently some dispute regarding who promoted whom and who should receive credit for being an instructor for some of the Black Belts listed here, one thing is NOT in question-

None of the names would be listed here without Great Grandmaster Ralph Castro developing his art and Rick and Maria Warwick bringing it to Washington State.

These belts used to be linked to biography pages for each of these individuals. The links have been removed in anticipation for a book that will soon be published that shares a bit about most of those listed here. The bio pages can still be accessed from the bottom of this page, but the information other than the cover of the book has been removed. Once the book is available on Amazon, we will place the link on this page.
